Cells do more than carry out chemical reactions. New theoretical work suggests they may also generate usable electrical ...
Human cells are extremely small and tightly packed – at about 20 micrometers across, ...
A research team has successfully identified a novel DNA damage repair pathway in human cells. This study is the first to discover that proteins present in the nuclear membrane of cells directly ...
Cancer cells have softer membranes than healthy cells. New nanoparticles exploit this physical difference to fuse selectively ...
Measuring membrane thickness was previously only possible in artificial membranes—now scientists can do it inside intact cells, providing crucial context for understanding how cells work.
Custom polymer structures can now be 3D printed inside living cells using laser-based fabrication, opening paths to intracellular sensors, cell tracking tags, and embedded microlasers.
